After all, the current him…
Is really in an embarrassing state.
Edward lightly pursed his lips, feeling a bit at a loss all of a sudden.
He instinctively lowered his gaze, concealing his emotions.
“Are you okay?” Charlotte noticed his unease and couldn’t help but ask.
gazed at her younger brother with gentle eyes, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.
Edward forced a faint smile, tugging at the corner of his mouth.
He didn’t want Charlotte to worry too much.
“I’m fine, sis,” he said with a calm demeanor, as if nothing had happened.
In front of his closest sister, he appeared unusually composed.
But Charlotte knew that he was merely putting on a facade.
“Edward, can you tell me what really happened?” She let out an almost imperceptible sigh and asked gently.
Regardless of the circumstances, understanding the truth and finding a way to save her brother was the most urgent matter at hand.
Edward, upon hearing her words, had a slight dimming in his eyes. His thin lips pressed into a straight line, his gaze tangled and obscure. For a
moment, he said nothing.
The two of them fell into silence.
Charlotte didn’t press further; she just quietly looked at her brother, as if waiting for him to speak the truth with his own words.
“Sis… Finally, after a moment of silence, Edward called her with a soft tone.
“I’m here,” Charlotte immediately replied, her gaze burning as she looked at him.
“Do you believe me?” He asked in a low tone, his deep eyes filled with darkness. He was afraid, afraid that Charlotte wouldn’t believe him either…
“Of course, I believe in you,” Charlotte replied without hesitation, her voice carrying a reassuring strength.
Upon hearing Charlotte’s words, Edward’s eyes brightened slightly.
His sister still believed in him!
“I believe in you, but you also need to tell me the whole story so I can help clear your name,” Charlotte continued, her eyes filled with concern,
Edward instinctively clenched his fist. In his profound eyes, various emotions were constantly shifting. He didn’t know how to explain. Even if be what could his sister do?
“Edward, tell me everything you know, please?” Charlotte gazed at her brother’s eyes calmly, her voice carrying a hint of coaxing, as if she wanted him to reveal everything.
“Before you came, you probably heard some of it, if I’m not mistaken…” Edward lowered his gaze, speaking with an emotionless face
“I heard some, but it wasn’t comprehensive, and you’re the one involved, so what you say is the most important Charlotte replied in a red
“Why did the daughter of the school supermarket owner falsely accuse you?”
Upon hearing this, a chilling coldness suddenly crossed Edward’s deep eyes. He clenched his teeth, and his eyes showed a stark resentme

She didn’t get a clear look at the man.
However, after the man left, she discovered a school badge on the ground with Edward’s name written on 1. Surveilance forage das captured Edward near the woods. Consequently, Edward became the prime suspect, to the extent that he was taken to the police station
“Charlotte, I swear, I really didn’t do anything… Edward lowered his gaze, as if there were glistening tears in his eyes.
In the end, he was still so young. His emotional resilience was not strong enough to be unbreakable. After the incident erupted countless people looked at him with disgust, as if he were an irredeemable villain. But he hadn’t done anything, had he? Almost no one belesed in him t father and…
His sister…
Everyone else had chosen to stand against him, believing that he should be punished.

Just then, Charlotte spoke up, breaking Edward’s train of thought.
“I know you didn’t do anything, and you wouldn’t do something like that,” she tried to soothe her brother’s emotions, hoping he would case his mind.
“Charlotte, if everyone thought like you, that would be great…” A faint, bitter smile tugged at the corner of Edward’s mouth. Those so–cal those people who were as close as a family at ordinary times, they don’t want to believe me. They’d rather believe in those so–called pueces evidence.”
Charlotte fixed her gaze on Edward, who appeared particularly vulnerable and helpless at this moment. There was even a hint of pain. His brow was tightly furrowed, as if he were immersed in painful memories.
“Charlotte, you should go back for now,” Edward suddenly changed the topic, saying, “This situation is very complicated, and you probably can’t din muck…”
“Why wouldn’t I be able to?” Charlotte chuckled and casually retorted. “Little brother, you have to believe in me.” She gave a slight nag at the cur of her mouth, displaying a confident and resolute smile. “I will definitely get you out of here.”
Although the situation was puzzling, Charlotte believed that she would soon uncover the truth and clear Edward’s name.
